#214 - Jerusalem the Golden With milk and honey blest-- The sight of it refreshes The weary and oppressed. I know not, oh, I know not What joys await us there, What radiancy of glory, What bliss beyond compare.

#214 - Jerusalem the Golden [2] They stand, those halls of Zion, All jubilant with song And bright with many an angel And all the martyr throng. The Prince is ever in them; The daylight is serene; The pastures of the blessed Are ever rich and green.

#214 - Jerusalem the Golden [3] There is the throne of David, And there, from care released, The shout of them that triumph, The song of them that feast; And they who with their leader Have conquered in the fight Forever and forever Are clad in robes of white.

#214 - Jerusalem the Golden [4] Oh, sweet and blessed country, The home of God's elect! Oh, sweet and blessed country That eager hearts expect! Jesus, in mercy bring us To that dear land of rest; You are with God the Father And Spirit ever blest.
